A Sunday Salmon, and Another. By Frederick Gordon. (Digby and

Long.)—This volume contains two stories, which,

though they cannot boast much novelty of plot, are quite read- able. Love and sport are combined in them with reasonable success, and the mixture resulting is not unpleasing. Mr. Gordon evidently knows something of the life in the Highlands which forms the chief part of his subject. But, we venture to ask, is it a custom in the lodges which he knows to supply the gillies, as Rory appears to have been supplied, with a black bottle of whisky ?
